The CA-BRA residency project featured works by young artists from Costa Rica, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Brazil, created during a residency process in Belo Horizonte.
Created by CEIA – Centro de Experimentação e Informação de Arte, in partnership with Espira La Espora, an initiative of Nicaraguan artists, and with Fundação Clóvis Salgado, the CA-BRA residency is part of the Conversas project developed by CEIA throughout 2011, in Belo Horizonte. The project also includes a residency for local artists, a cycle of six free lectures and the release of a publication. According to CEIA coordinators Marco Paulo Rolla and Marcos Hill, one of the main objectives of the project is to prepare the ground for a larger event that will take place in 2012, entitled “Permeability between the different artistic languages today”. The event aims to “promote possible dialogues between different media expressions and stimulate exchanges between artists”.
Participating in the CA-BRA project are artists Denise Aguilar Huezo (El Salvador), Jullissa Moncada and Alejandro Flores (Nicaragua), Javier Calvo and Fabrizio Arrieta (Costa Rica), Carolina Caliento, Guilherme Peters, Fernando Pirata (SP, Brazil), Marcos Davi, Inácio Ribeiro Mariani, Raquel Versieux and Sara Lambranho (Belo Horizonte, Brazil). For approximately twenty days, the 12 artists worked in a collective studio in Belo Horizonte, creating from their individual experiences and conversations with Dora Longo Bahia (SP – Brazil), Marco Paulo Rolla (MG – Brazil) and Marcos Hill (MG – Brazil).
